No one replied back! You know why? Because its not true! If they performed the very simple experiment I proposed which would either prove there theory or disprove it, they now know its a bunch of BS. There is no oil system design flaw with the Duratec! What there is however are operators of a vehical that will not accept responsabillity for there own actions. Its always somone or something else at fault. 
and as far as the redesign I beleive I mentioned the bypass valve. I think it was stated the bypass valve was redesigned so it would not get stuck so easily,so the filter would not be blown by too high oil pressure.Sounds like a raging case of denial to me.
Taking responsibility for their actions? Taking right hand sweeping turns at 55-60 mph in a car that can pull about .9 (IIRC) on the skidpad and causing frothing/ starvation is driver fault? Seems to me that if the car can pull that high a rating, a couple of off/ on ramps should be no problem.
In case you think I am pulling this out of thin air, post a topic titled "There is no oil starvation problems with the Duratec" or "The Duratec has a very reliable oiling system" in the general forum and defend your position. I bet you won't do it.
